Sanity is a compromise.
Aleister Crowley
Image
Sanity is to be found in accurate honesty to oneself.
David Bain
Image
We are so accustomed to the apparently rational nature of our world that we can scarcely imagine anything happening that cannot be explained by common sense. The primitive man confronted by a shock of this kind would not doubt his sanity he would think of fetishes, spirits or gods
Carl Jung
Image
Meditation takes us just as we are, with our confusion and our sanity. This complete acceptance of ourselves as we are is called maitri, or unconditional friendliness, a simple, direct relationship with the way we are.
Pema Chodron
Image
Literature deserves its prestige for one reason above all others - because it's a tool to help us live and die with a little bit more wisdom, goodness, and sanity.
Alain de Botton
Image
As an individual becomes aware of subliminal phenomena, the shock may cause him some initial physical or emotional discomfort - possibly even concern over his sanity.
Wilson Bryan Key
Image
Humor hardens the heart, at least to the point of sanity.
Agnes Repplier
Image
History is the same thing over and over again.
Woody Allen
Image
I really believe, or want to believe, really I am nuts, otherwise I'll never be sane.
Allen Ginsberg
Image
I felt lethal, on the verge of frenzy. My nightly bloodlust overflowed into my days and I had to leave the city. My mask of sanity was a victim of impending slippage. This was the bone season for me and I needed a vacation.
Bret Easton Ellis
Image
As painful as life can be at times for people all over the world there is some component of existence, or nonexistence perhaps, operating to implement a balance and give us an opportunity to turn the horrors we've forced upon each other into something more conducive to sustaining at least minimal degrees of sanity and love.
Aberjhani
Image
To win a moral victory at the expense of your sanity is dumb.
Stuart Wilde
Image
Sanity brings pain but madness is a vile thing.
Euripides
Image
Somewhere between sanity and madness lays a fine line, for some it is a tightrope walked daily, a fight for balance to be won or lost. That fight is lost one of two ways. Some simply lose their balance and fall, others are pushed.
Zoë Heller
Image
My parents passed away when I was a teenager, so I had to learn different survival techniques, I think, in comedy. You know, using comedy as a pressure release, as a release valve in life really kept my sanity.
Jeff Ross
Image
We might describe our world as having retail sanity, but wholesale madness.
Peter Thiel
Image
For me, exercise is more mental than physical. I crave it for my sanity. Not just the endorphins, but my energy, confidence, and relaxation are all motivated by it.
Jonathan Keltz
Image
For whatever deserves to exist deserves also to be known, for knowledge is the image of existence, and things mean and splendid exist alike.
Francis Bacon
Image
True sanity entails in one way or another the dissolution of the normal ego, that false self competently adjusted to our alienated social reality... and through this death a rebirth and the eventual re-establishment of a new kind of ego-functioning, the ego now being the servant of the divine, no longer its betrayer.
R. D. Laing
Image
She began framing the words of her telegram into a senseless singsong so that several park keepers looked at her with suspicion and were only brought to a favourable opinion of her sanity by noticing the pearl necklace which she wore.
Virginia Woolf
Image
What is my proudest accomplishment? I went through some pretty difficult times, and I kept my sanity.
Bill Vaughan
Image
Sanity, it would seem, was a dangerously contagious disease.
H. Beam Piper
Image
Sweat is my sanity. During the campaign, the days never went as well if I couldn't get out there and sweat.
Sarah Palin
Image
Sanity is all that stands between good and evil.
Raymond E. Feist
